You do know that there are people that have the suspension set up like that for the sole purpose of minimal squat, right?

Yes of course. This is a stock suspension NSX though and thus I've never seen even a stock suspension NSX squat like that.

1.59 60' time.




It was also his FIRST time ever at the track.

I suppose the two-step on the EMS made launching pretty damn easy.
